My lovely Girlfriend brought Mariela in to cook for my 30th birthday and it could not have been better. She came over to our place, groceries and tools in hand, and put together one of the best meals we've had in a long long time. She also gladly cooked up pretty much everything she bought, so we've been eating leftovers all week. Don't hesitate to bring her in, you won't be disappointed.

My husband surprised me by hiring Mariela for my 39th birthday and she did not disappoint! Our experience was amazing! Each dish was delicious and beautifully plated. It was incredibly professional and we all loved that she explained each dish prior to the course. It was one of the finest meals I've ever had and rivaled any restaurant experience in the city. My friends and I will be raving about it for another 39 years!

Mariela catered a cocktail reception for us. She was great and super easy to work with. She showed up early and made the best food. Everyone was really impressed. Thank you!
